Our take on the Midland T51VP3 X-Talker

The Midland T51VP3 X-Talker is a two-pack of FRS/GMRS walkie-talkies aimed at family camping and hiking. It adds NOAA weather scan and alert, 38 privacy codes and hands-free eVOX to the basic X-Talker formula, and runs on rechargeable lithium-ion packs through a desktop charger. Range claims of up to 28 miles are line-of-sight figures; expect a fraction of that in woods, hills or buildings. It is simpler and cheaper-feeling than Midland's GXT or MXT lines, which offer more power and sturdier builds, and owners rate it around the middle of the pack.

Questions and answers

Is the 28-mile range realistic?
No. That figure assumes clear line of sight. In woods, hills or buildings expect well under a mile, and often a few hundred yards.
Do these need a license?
They run on FRS and GMRS frequencies. FRS channels are license-free; some GMRS channels require an FCC license in the US.
How do they charge?
The included lithium-ion packs charge in the desktop charger, and a USB cable is included for charging on the go.
Can I use regular AA batteries?
No. The T51VP3 uses the supplied rechargeable packs, so carry a charged spare for longer trips.
How does it compare with Midland's GXT radios?
The GXT line offers more power, longer realistic range and sturdier builds. The T51 is the simpler, lighter family option.
Does it work with other walkie-talkies?
Yes, on shared FRS/GMRS channels with matching privacy codes, including other Midland models.
